I have a lovely 2-acre parcel for sale, county water and electric available, conveniently close to the highway but far enough to be secluded and tranquil. Includes mature ‘ōhi‘a/hapu‘u/anthurium forest. Driveway and building area pre-cleared and ready for you. No need be off-grid! Safe little neighborhood with one road in and out, close to Kurtistown and Kea‘au. This is a gem waiting to be snatched up. Contact the realtor for details!

This is a Vacant Land. It is located at 17-1070 Nailima Rd Lot 3, Mountain View, HI.

Reminding those who didn't know that Nov. 28 was celebrated for decades as Independence Day in Hawai'i, marking the day that Great Britain and France signed a declaration recognizing Hawai‘i as a sovereign nation. It was officially celebrated from about 1844 until 1895, and unofficially for some years afterward. It was revived again in 2006.

Lōhi‘au's house platform, associated with the story of Hi'iakaikapoliopele, is still visible near the head of the Kalalau trail, opposite Kē‘ē Beach. A stone wall in the forest, now much covered by vegetation, is the front face of the site. It is in close proximity to Kē‘ē beach, but unmarked and at times obscured by the overgrowth.
